Snow!

We are having a snowstorm. We had maybe 4-5 inches in the span of about 3 hours. Here is it after about 1" of snowfall. These photos were taken at about 1pm today. It was quite pretty. However, it wasn't so pretty when it came to shoveling!!

I managed to shovel half of one side of the driveway, and that was enough for my poor little back. I did not dare do any more. Husband was not feeling well, and the snowblower was out of commission. Ah, well. Didn't have the heart to ask a teenager to help (actually one of the two was sick).

I was planning to go out tonight with some friends, but opted to stay home where it is nice and warm, and away from traffic and unpredictable snowbanks. Plus-it is snowing again, and I'm not even sure that I can get out of the driveway!!
